Most people are so busy that there is occasionally too much to do, so they must work on several projects at once. In fact, there are actually many advantages to working on two or more projects simultaneously as opposed merely to doing them one at a time.
Nowadays, there is simply not enough time to work exclusively on one project, so people must often take on two or more tasks together. Indeed, by doing several projects at once, a person can actually save time. For example, once I had to write an article for my school newspaper and study for a Chinese test. I decided to do them both together, so I listened to my Chinese lessons on a CD while writing the article. I did well on the test and submitted the article on time. Sometimes, one can save time by doing activities together and still do them well.
By working on several things at once, I find that I can focus more on the tasks at hand. This serves to enhance my performance, thereby letting me do work better and quicker. Last semester, I had to study for two tests and write a paper on the same night. I was worried about all this work, so I concentrated solely on my schoolwork. I turned off my cell phone, shut down my computer, and stayed in my room until I had completed all those tasks. Being focused exclusively on those projects enabled me to ignore the unimportant things and focus on what was crucial.
Lastly, while doing several things at once can be stressful, doing so successfully can be rewarding. By showing you are capable of multitasking, you can prove your skills and abilities to others. For instance, I volunteer at my school’s library. The librarian once asked me to do two things simultaneously: catalog all the new books and complete a plan for a reading project for children. T managed to finish both jobs on time, which impressed the librarian so much that she recommended me for a summer job at the local library. Showing people you can do good work will always benefit you in the future.
In conclusion, doing several projects at once can save time, enhance one’s performance, and be rewarding in the benefits one receives. While multitasking might not be for everyone, I have found it to be an enjoyable and beneficial experience.
